The Woman Behind Shivaji ! #shorts #marathi #mother Marathi Podcast

Ajit Moghe emphasizes the pivotal role of Jijabai, the mother of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, in shaping his vision, leadership, and military strategies. While Shahaji Raje laid the foundation, it was Jijabai who stood as Shivaji’s strongest pillar, actively participating in governance and decision-making. Even during Shivaji Maharaj’s imprisonment in Agra, she demonstrated her leadership by leading military efforts and successfully winning the fort of Rangana. Moghe highlights that such strength, wisdom, and determination are the marks of a mother’s influence in shaping a great leader.
Jijabai passed away on June 17, 1674, just eleven days after Shivaji Maharaj’s grand coronation on June 6, as if she had fulfilled her life’s purpose. Despite her immense contributions to the rise of the Maratha Empire, she remains underappreciated in history. Moghe stresses the need to recognize Jijabai’s legacy as the guiding force behind one of India’s greatest warriors and visionaries.
